Link the Workstation to the R3000IR
The procedures outlined in this sub-section require the use of the CAT-5E crossover
cable.

NOTE: When facing the rear of the chassis, the LAN 2 port is the port on the
right.

B. Plug the other end of the CAT-5E crossover cable into the setup workstation’s net-
work card.
NOTE: If you have a CAT-5E coupler, this can be used if the crossover cable
is not long enough for your setup. Plug one end of the CAT-5E crossover cable into
the R3000, and the other end into the coupler. Plug a standard CAT-5E cable into
the other end of the coupler, and the free end of the standard CAT-5E cable into
the setup workstation.
C. Plug the R3000IR into a power source with an appropriate rating.
WARNING: It is strongly suggested you use an uninterruptible power supply.
D. Power on the R3000IR by lowering the face plate and pressing the large button at
the right of the front panel (see diagram below):
